Brightcast
Verified positive news, with a hope impact score
Brightcast is a hope platform that tracks global progress and positive development across innovation, health, environment, and community. Every story is verified and scored by our proprietary Brightcast Impact Score (BIS). Your reading directly funds real-world projects through Hope Coins. Available on iOS, Android, and web.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Tom, solo founder of Brightcast.
I built this because I was tired of feeling worse after reading the news. Turns out 73% of heavy news consumers report mental health issues — and yet the world is actually getting better by almost every measure. That disconnect bothered me.
Brightcast isn't a feel-good filter. Every article is verified and scored by our Brightcast Impact Score (BIS), and your reading directly funds real environmental and social projects through Hope Coins. I wanted to build something where staying informed actually makes things better — for you, your children and for the world.
I'm a solo dev based in Appenzell (Switzerland), built this with Next.js + React Native on a CHF 150/month budget. Would love your feedback on what categories or features matter most to you.
Stop doomscrolling. Start hopescrolling. 🌍💚
